2 Chronicles 29:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 For our fathers have trespassed and done evil in the eyes of the Lord our God, and have forsaken him, and turned away their faces from the Tabernacle of the Lord, and turned their backs.
7 They have also shut the doors of the porch, and quenched the lamps, and have neither burnt incense, nor offered burnt offerings in the Sanctuary unto the God of Israel.
8 [a]Wherefore the wrath of the Lord hath been on Judah and Jerusalem, and he hath made them a [b]scattering, a desolation, and an hissing, as ye see with your eyes.
